CRITIR Documentation
How to use CRITIR for thermal inspection of façades, solar arrays and structures — from capture planning and anomaly analysis to orthos, 3D, measurements and reports, explained with screenshots and diagrams.
Getting started
System requirements & installationCheck the system requirements, install the app, and launch it for the first time
QuickstartWalk through the full workflow, from creating a project to exporting a report
Project managementCreate projects, manage sets, and filter images
Plans and featuresThe difference between LITE and PRO, and which features require PRO
Look
Infrared image analysisFit the display range to bring out anomalies. Palettes, alarms, and masks
Viewer basicsThe 8 display modes, zoom and pan controls, and comparing images
Ortho viewerView and work with orthomosaics that stitch a whole wall into one image
3D modelsGenerate 3D meshes and analyze temperature-mapped 3D models
Same-location searchFind every image that shows the spot you clicked
Set linksLink sets together to compare the same locations over time
Build and measure
Capture planning (Thermal Planner)Simulate sunlight and shadow per face and pick the right time to shoot before you leave (free web tool)
Orthomosaic generationTurn many photos into an orthomosaic of a whole wall
Unwrapped ortho (cylinder / cone)Unwrap tanks, silos, chimneys and other cylindrical or tapered structures into a single image
Scale settingsSet the real-world scale per set so distances and areas are correct
Measurement toolsHow to use the 8 temperature measurement tools and manage measurement results
Report and share
Report creationConfigure inspection reports and export them as PDF, Word, Excel or DXF
Template builderBuild custom report templates with fully flexible layouts
ExportExport images, HTML viewers, and projects
